Dan Wood

Dan Wood

Dan is our head electrician and managing director. He’s passionate about doing good work and is across all client projects from start to finish. Dan’s built a name for himself for his ability to find creative solutions in lighting design, combining functionality and future-proof practicality with attractive design. Plus he’s so tall he doesn’t often need a ladder – bonus!

After completing his apprenticeship in Warkworth, Dan spent two years exploring the world with Bailee. They returned home in 2014 and established Dan Wood Electrical, started their family, got married and built their first home. Needless to say, Dan doesn’t have much spare time these days but when he does he’s happiest fishing, hiking, mountain biking, or spending time in the outdoors with his family.

Bailee Wood

Bailee Wood

As the saying goes, behind every great man is an even greater woman. Bailee is the woman behind the scenes, making sure everything runs smoothly and clients have a great experience when they deal with Dan Wood Electrical. Her key responsibilities include administration, business development and customer service. Bailee studied at Waikato University, completing a double degree in Geography and Sport & Rec, and a post-grad dip in ECE teaching.

After a few years of teaching and travelling, she moved to Warkworth. These days Bailee tries to find balance working from home with two young children, while trying to fit in the activities she enjoys most: sports and exploring the outdoors with the kids. She also looks forward to the day when she can sit in the sun with a good book.

Brendon Frost

Brendon Frost

Our apprentice Brendon is an experienced and qualified auto electrician who is now working towards his electrical qualification with Dan Wood Electrical. After working as a mechanic and jet boat driver in Queenstown, Brendon and girlfriend Vanessa moved north to make Warkworth their home, bringing their much-loved Kelpie Joey with them.

Brendon brings his strong customer relations mind-set and work ethic to our team. When he’s not at work you’ll find him… still working, on his apprenticeship! But he’d much rather be adventuring outdoors where he enjoys mountain biking, 4WDing, hunting and fishing. While Brendon has an Australian accent, he’s a bona fide Kiwi. Born in Christchurch, he grew up in Brisbane, then spent a brief period working in Canada before coming back to NZ in 2015.

Testimonials

  • “We have used Dan for several jobs, including a couple which were reasonably complex – installing a water filter, moving a power pole and renovating a studio – and which involved other contractors such as Vector, Electrix and MobiAir. Dan is so helpful, efficient and solution oriented. Nothing is ever too much of an issue or problem and he can be 100% relied upon to get the job done to a high standard. Dan is a pleasure to have around – he is positive, friendly, highly motivated and hard working. We would recommend Dan Wood Electrical without hesitation.”
    Miranda and James Mizen, Whangateau
  • “As Warkworth residents it was important to us to have a local electrician do our renovation work for us. We asked Dan to do the job having heard about the quality of his work, the creativity he brings to jobs, and his attention to detail. Throughout our project he understood of our specific requirements and design. Dan's portion of our renovation was completed on time at every juncture, and in a very tidy and professional manner. I would have no reservation recommending Dan to anyone with substantial electrical work to be done on their home while living in it.”

  • “I chose Dan because he came highly recommended. Dan did all the electrical work for our new build, with a fantastic result of very well thought out design and practicality provided by Dan. Some challenges came with lighting a 5.5m high curved living area which turned out even better than expected. Dan was also the only tradesman in our build to keep under budget! He was also so easy to communicate with. Dan’s the man if you want quality and great value. We highly recommend him.”
    Eugene and Helen Sims, homeowners, Kaipara.
